Katherine Jenkins Will Perform in Doctor Who Christmas Special
It will be the first time in the BBC sci-fi show's 47-year history that a musical performance will be integrated into a storyline.
Executive producer and lead writer Steven Moffat is hugely excited about the December special, saying: "It is incredibly Christmassy. That's true of the previous ones but I wanted to go for broke. It's easily the most Christmassy thing you'll ever see. It's a huge, sentimental, lovely, jeopardy-driven story. It's the Christmas special I'd like to see. It's like a compilation of every Christmas movie - a big Christmas treat. But that doesn't mean it's without scares, and that doesn't mean it's without heartbreak. It has genuine tragedy in it."

As the Doctor Who Live tour draws closer, how are you feeling?
“I’m so pleased to be doing this show - it’s all the best bits of Doctor Who and the eyes of the world will be on us. The whole cast is thrilled with it and can't wait to get going. We know how good it is - it’s a huge, action filled production. And yes, there are a few nerves here and there!”
What should audiences expect from the show?
“It’s a multilayered extravaganza of all things Doctor Who. The set is big, the music is epic, the monsters are right there with you and several of the scenes have been written by the brilliant Steven Moffat. It draws you in from the very start. Everyone involved has had to work very closely with the pyrotechnics guys, the illusionists and props, set and lighting guys - the show is so intertwined with all these factors - it’s fantastic to be involved.”
What sort of reactions are you hoping from audiences?
“The storyline is based in an arena - putting on a show for an audience! Things soon start to go strange. The audience are essential and integral to the plot so there is a lot of audience interaction which is always enjoyable. The action comes thick and fast so they need to be on their toes - the universe needs you like a universe has never needed an audience before!”

Dr who ninth doctor quotes The Unquiet Dead
The Doctor: Humbug? Come on, open mind.
Dickens: This is the sort of mummery I strive to unmask. Séances? Nothing but luminous tambourines and a squeeze box concealed between the knees. This girl knows nothing!
The Doctor: Now don't antagonize her. I love a happy medium!
Rose: I can't believe you just said that.
The Doctor: I saw the Fall of Troy! World War Five! I was pushing boxes at the Boston Tea Party! Now I'm gonna die in a dungeon.... in Cardiff!
Gwyneth: And you have come such a long way.
Rose: What makes you think so?
Gwyneth: You're from London, I have seen London in drawings, but never like that. All those people rushing about, half naked for shame. And the noise, and the metal boxes racing past, and the birds in the sky- no, no they are metal as well. Metal birds with people in them, people are flying. And you, you have flown so far, further than any one. The things you’ve seen- The Darkness, The Big Bad Wolf!
